I'm here!
Been a rough week, super shaky, low energy & weak. I've been staying home to rest up and conserve energy, so going pretty stir crazy.

I’m almost on week two and I’m still very tired and I usually get a nap in to help. I haven’t gone out much but I’m looking forward to going out on Tuesday and hopefully get the ok to start exercising hope that will bring me more energy!

My honor my friends , you can pay me back by sending prayers my own surgery day will come. I wanted to be one of you but it just didn't happen, maybe March, maybe April?

Sending prayers that your surgery day will come quickly..

Even though I'm currently very weak and shaky, I don't find driving to be challenging. But if you're nervous it's better to be safe and take a Lyft instead.

I'm 6 days post RNY and doing great! Getting all my liquids and Proteins in and doing my walking. I don't feel a lot of fatigue and am not on pain meds. Haven't gone out a lot, since there's really only the grocery store (and we don't need anything) or going out to dinner which won't work for me right now).

Hope everyone is healing well and feeling better every day?!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
